Equations and Inequations

Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Question

Chapter 1.3, Problem 2WE

To determine

The distance between the points -3 and -17.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 2WE

The distance between the two points on a number line is 14

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The numbers given are the coordinates of two points on a number line.

Formula used:

Distance can be calculated by taking the absolute value of the difference of coordinates of points.

Calculation:

From the definition;

Distance can be calculated by taking the absolute value of the difference of coordinates of points.

From above argument distance is:

Distance=|−17−(−3)| =14

Therefore, the distance between the two points is 14.

Conclusion:

The distance between the two points is 14.
